What is the difference between a Master AWB and a House AWB? +

A Master Air Waybill (MAWB) is issued by the airline — in this case Volotea — directly to the freight forwarder. It begins with the airline's prefix: 712. A House Air Waybill (HAWB) is issued by the freight forwarder to the individual shipper and uses the forwarder's own numbering system. For tracking on Volotea's official portal, you need the MAWB starting with 712-. If you only have a HAWB, ask your freight forwarder for the corresponding MAWB.

Yes. 712 is the single IATA-assigned AWB prefix exclusively for Volotea. IATA assigns one unique 3-digit prefix per airline. No other carrier uses prefix 712, so whenever you see an airway bill starting with 712, it is guaranteed to be a Volotea shipment.

What if my 712 AWB shows no tracking status? +

Tracking status for a 712 AWB may not appear immediately after booking. It becomes visible only after the cargo has been physically accepted at a Volotea cargo terminal and the AWB has been activated in their system. This typically takes 2–8 hours after acceptance. If your AWB still shows no status after 12 hours, contact Volotea cargo customer service or your freight forwarder directly.
